This is essentially an erratum, with some example to indicate inconsistencies. Suppose $A=k[X_1, X_2, \ldots, X_n]$ is a polynomial ring over a field $k$. The Complete Intersection conjecture states that, for any ideal $I$ in $A$,…

Given a weight two modular form f with associated p-adic Galois representation V_f, for certain quadratic imaginary fields K one can construct canonical classes in the Galois cohomology of V_f by taking the Kummer images of Heegner points…

In this paper we develop the theory of homogeneous functions between finite abelian groups. Here, a function $f:G\longrightarrow H$ between finite abelian groups is homogeneous of degree $d$ if $f(nx)=n^df(x)$ for all $x\in G$ and all $n$…

We give two algorithms for computing the Hilbert depth of a \emph{graded ideal} in the polynomial ring. These algorithms work efficiently for (squarefree) lex ideals. As a consequence, we construct counterexamples to some conjectures made…

We say that an ideal I is homogeneous, if its restriction to any I-positive subset is isomorphic to I. The paper investigates basic properties of this notion -- we give examples of homogeneous ideals and present some applications to…

A symmetric chain of ideals is a rule that assigns to each finite set $S$ an ideal $I_S$ in the polynomial ring $\mathbb{C}[x_i]_{i \in S}$ such that if $\phi \colon S \to T$ is an embedding of finite sets then the induced homomorphism…

Let $k$ be a field of positive characteristic and $R = k[x_0,\dots, x_n]$. We consider ideals $I\subseteq R$ generated by homogeneous polynomials of degree $d$. Takagi and Watanabe proved that $\mathrm{fpt}(I)\geq \mathrm{height}(I)/d$; we…

Let $N$ and $p$ be prime numbers $\geq 5$ such that $p$ divides $N-1$. Let $I$ be Mazur's Eisenstein ideal of level $N$ and $H_+$ be the plus part of $H_1(X_0(N), \mathbf{Z}_p)$ for the complex conjugation. We give a conjectural explicit…

In this paper we study the class of power ideals generated by the $k^n$ forms $(x_0+\xi^{g_1}x_1+\ldots+\xi^{g_n}x_n)^{(k-1)d}$ where $\xi$ is a fixed primitive $k^{th}$-root of unity and $0\leq g_j\leq k-1$ for all $j$. For $k=2$, by using…

We formulate a plausible conjecture for the optimal Ehrhard-type inequality for convex symmetric sets with respect to the Gaussian measure. Namely, letting $J_{k-1}(s)=\int^s_0 t^{k-1} e^{-\frac{t^2}{2}}dt$ and $c_{k-1}=J_{k-1}(+\infty)$,…

In [9], Migliore, Mir\'o-Roig and Nagel, proved that if $R = \mathbb{K}[x,y,z]$, where $\mathbb{K}$ is a field of characteristic zero, and $I=(L_1^{a_1},\dots,L_r^{a_4})$ is an ideal generated by powers of 4 general linear forms, then the…

We prove the Goldman-Parker Conjecture: A complex hyperbolic ideal triangle group is directly embedded in PU(2,1) if and only if the product of its three standard generators is not elliptic. We also prove that such a group is indiscrete if…

Let $I(G)$ be the edge ideal of a gapfree graph $G$. An open conjecture of Nevo and Peeva states that $I(G)^q$ has linear resolution for $q\gg 0$. We present a promising approach to this challenging conjecture by investigating the stronger…

In the present paper, we investigate a conjecture of J\"urgen Herzog. Let $S$ be a local regular ring with residue field $K$ or a positively graded $K$-algebra, $I\subset S$ be a perfect ideal of grade two, and let $R=S/I$ with canonical…

We investigate the structure and properties of symmetric ideals generated by general forms in the polynomial ring under the natural action of the symmetric group. This work significantly broadens the framework established in our earlier…

Let $S$ be a regular local ring or a polynomial ring over a field and $I$ be an ideal of $S$. Motivated by a recent result of Herzog and Huneke, we study the natural question of whether $I^m$ is a Golod ideal for all $m\geq 2$. We observe…

Let $K$ be a field of characteristic zero and $x$ a free variable. A $K$-$\mathcal E$-derivation of $K[x]$ is a $K$-linear map of the form $\operatorname{I}-\phi$ for some $K$-algebra endomorphism $\phi$ of $K[x]$, where $\operatorname{I}$…

If $G$ is a finite Coxeter group, then symplectic reflection algebra $H:=H_{1,\eta}(G)$ has Lie algebra $\mathfrak {sl}_2$ of inner derivations and can be decomposed under spin: $H=H_0 \oplus H_{1/2} \oplus H_{1} \oplus H_{3/2} \oplus ...$.…

We show that monomial ideals generated in degree two satisfy a conjecture by Eisenbud, Green and Harris. In particular we give a partial answer to a conjecture of Kalai by proving that $h$-vectors of flag Cohen-Macaulay simplicial complexes…

A general covariant Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet Gravity in Four-Dimensional (4D EGB) spacetime is shown to bypass Lovelock's theorem and is free from Ostrogradsky instability. Meanwhile, the bumblebee theory is a vector-tensor theory. It extends…
